The month begins with six of the seven traditional planets in Saturn’s signs leaving only Jupiter in his own watery domicile of Pisces. This configuration emphasizes the quarter section of our charts containing Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. On the 3rd, Mercury stations direct. His three week retrograde saw him travel from 10° Aquarius to 24° […]

Earlier in the week I asked my tarot deck, “How do I upgrade my vibrational placeholder?” What’s a vibrational placeholder? A vibrational placeholder is kind of like your energetic set point. The ever-grasping mind naturally defaults to the reptilian vigilance states of anxiety, worry and rumination. So even if we’re enjoying ourselves, once the enjoyment ends,

Just as the Sun travels through a new sign every thirty days, the Moon journeys through a lunar mansion every single day. The 28 lunar mansions were thought to be the moon’s resting places as she moved across the sky for a full cycle. Just like the domiciles that host the Sun from month to

January 17, 2022 at 5:49pm CST—Last week as I was walking my dog, I was listening to Tami Simon interview Jungian analyst James Hollis on the Sounds True podcast.  Hollis said something that made me think of Monday’s Full Moon in Cancer.  It went along these lines: There’s something in us that always knows what is right for us.

Hello and Happy almost New Year! Let’s take a look at the astro highlights of January 2022. January begins with Mercury entering the Water Bearer’s sign on the 2nd.

With Jupiter’s ingress into Pisces tonight, December 28th (10:10pm CST), how will the Great Benefic influence you?  Before we take a look at Jupiter through the houses, let’s consider some of the challenges and rewards associated with Jupiter. Challenges Jupiter is associated with growth. But do we want to super-size our waistlines or workload? Expansion

In the spirit of creative experimentation, I’ve joined forces with award-winning photographer, Holly Wilmeth. Holly recently released a Sacred Nature Oracle Deck.  Our collaboration is inspired by the photographs of plants and humans in this gorgeous deck. But instead of plants, we’ll be creating talismanic photographs of planets using people as placeholders. What’s a talisman? Put simply,

December 18, 2021 at 10:35pm CT—There comes a time when writing a paper, thesis or even a book, the writer has done all the research they possibly can. Acquiring more data becomes counterproductive. Saturday’s Full Moon in Gemini feels a lot like reaching the saturation point for obtaining the information needed to make a decision. Whether

The upcoming Venus Retrograde is not for the faint of heart. To begin, Venus entered Capricorn November 9th and will quadruple her normal residency in a sign, leaving for Aquarius on March 6th, 2022. That’s a lot of Venus in Capricorn! She’s got some heavy lifting to do during her retrograde as she re-examines the
